Well, this could either mean something or a whole lot of nothing...
Mail Online has shared some photos of That '90s Show and Family Guy star Mila Kunis meeting with WandaVision and Fantastic Four director Matt Shakman at a restaurant in Hollywood. As you might expect, this has led to speculation they may have been there to discuss the upcoming Marvel Studios movie, something we definitely can't discount.
As far as we're aware, these two haven't worked together on anything else before now and we couldn't find any photos of them meeting as friends outside of these snaps.
In fact, it looks like a typical meeting between filmmaker and actor to discuss potentially working together, possibly explaining why Kunis was getting so animated during their conversation. We're obviously making some big assumptions here, but it's not outside the realm of possibility that they were chatting about Sue Storm in Fantastic Four.
Shakman recently confirmed that, as soon as he's done working on Godzilla and the Titans for Apple TV+ he will immediately start work on Fantastic Four, so he doesn't have anything else in the pipeline.
Kunis would be a great fit for the Invisible Woman, especially if the plan is for the MCU's take on Marvel's First Family to be an established team (there are rumbling they get stuck in the 1960s for a time before returning to the present day). If Reed Richards and Sue have kids at this point, casting actors in their late 30s/early 40s makes all the sense in the world.
What do you guys think? Could Kunis be among the candidates to play Sue in the MCU or is there another role in Fantastic Four you think she'd be a better fit for?
The movie is set to be released on February 14, 2025.
